Stalkers, Happy New Year!
The Zone is changing — and so are we. Thank you for your support, ideas, and feedback. Thanks to you, Z.O.N.A Origin has become better. May the anomalies be kinder to you this year, and may your loot be richer!
A New Year event has been added. You can start it by talking to the Snowman at the “Free Stalkers” base. The event is available from 08.12.2025 to 12.01.2026. Completing it rewards you with a unique golden AKS-74U.
A small New Year-themed location has been added. It becomes accessible after completing the event.
A new type of zombie has been introduced. It appears only during the New Year event and has increased resistance to damage compared to regular monsters.
The quest to find Brodyaga’s missing group has been improved. Now, even if the player doesn’t respond to the radio message and doesn’t contact Brodyaga, the quest will still be considered completed after clearing the base.
Minor adjustments to the quest where you deliver the disk to Iskra at the “Dawn” base.
Small fixes and improvements to the loot system.
The leaderboard has been reset — it’s the perfect time to claim the top spot!
